Action-oriented tasks are frequently implemented in a variety of digital contexts, as these can be better aligned with learners’ content-related and media-specific needs and facilitate the practice of communicative actions. However, the use of such digital learning environments also poses challenges for both learners and teachers. On the one hand, they require competencies such as digital literacy, which are often insufficiently addressed in classroom practice. On the other hand, these tasks involve additional effort for teachers in terms of preparation, implementation, and assessment.
Against this backdrop, the presentation pursues two objectives: first, to highlight the potential of action-oriented learning scenarios in digital learning environments for the development of linguistic, media-related, and social competencies; and second, to present task pools and practical guidelines that enable the straightforward implementation of such scenarios.
